I can’t say I’ve ever seen a Topaz Bar at this venue, but the Wood Rose bar is one of the older bars in this area, and indeed in all of Colombo. Accessible via a short stairway from outside the premises, there is a very nice sign announcing the name outside the door.The interior is a little less salubrious, although the regulars don’t seem to mind all that much. The space is divided into several cubicles, with a modern and garish addition of an enclosed fishbowl smoking area taking over what was previously fairly comfortable seating.The food is very typical of a regular Sri Lankan bar, with devilled and fried dishes taking forefront. They offer all the regular fare such as hot butter cuttlefish and moderately spicy/sweet meat dishes. There is a bar with mostly local spirits on offer but I tend to confine myself to beers at this venue.Hotel Sapphire doesn’t have extensive parking on premises, especially at dinner time or when a function is being staged at the hotel. Parking down Arethusa Lane next door (with a convenient side entrance from the hotel) is pretty much essential.I hesitate to stereotype but it’s unfortunately true that the Wood Rose no longer sees large, mixed groups of revellers – it’s usually a place for a quiet drink or two and waiting out the traffic before heading off home.
